It sounds as if the general config file section setting

freeze_tell

has been set up with an address. Removing that will stop the messages. By
default it has no address, and no message is sent.

(We actually have one system on which it is set, as doing so caught
processing errors upstream. It hasn't been triggered since the last time I
"fixed" the upstream a few months ago, so perhaps I actually fixed it
correctly (that time)).

The command
exim -bP freeze_tell
will show the current setting.
